I could always use a couple more gigs, but I don't know if they are compatible -- and I do know that if they are incompatible, it won't work. But, exactly what do I risk by trying it out? Will the system just not boot, so I take it out and it's as if nothing ever happened? Or will attempting such an installation actually result in permanent damage to my system if it's not compatible?

There are two kind of compatibility - physical and electrical. The notches in the contacts are in different locations so they will not even fit in the slots - even though without careful examination they look like they will.
You can force them in with excessive force, but you will then permanently damage the motherboard slots, and possibly the RAM too. So before even thinking about trying them, you need to make sure they are the same type of RAM. As for electrically compatible, you should research your motherboard and see what it supports. Then use the labels on the RAM to see what it is, and if compatible. Other than physical damage if the wrong type RAM, I agree the worst that can happen is the system just won't boot.
